46 Intersoc Sheffield University Islam Awareness Week IAW is always one of the biggest events of the year for Islamic societies, and for the University of Sheffield, this year was no different! With stalls in and around our Students’ Union providing literature, free henna and cupcakes, we were able to reach out to the non-Muslim audience at our university to spread the message of our religion. Throughout the week there were a number of evening lectures on a variety of pertinent issues such as women’s rights in Islam and the true identity of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) from Islamic scholars and academics to allow people to engage on a more intellectual level. As well as this outreach to non-Muslims, many Muslims themselves are under the perception that Islamic societies are for a specific niche in the community and feel that they would be judged by attending events, a misconception that we have particularly tried to change this year. Our last event of the week was a first of its kind at our university, an intersoc event titled ‘Want to Know More?’ held in collaboration with six of the main societies with Muslim members: USIC, SMSA, Alulae, Pasco, Palos and Arabs. The main aim of this event was to provide a relaxed atmosphere that combined gaining knowledge with entertainment and offered a chance for Muslim students of different interests to meet each other as well as get more involved with societies. The event was held in our Students’ Union and it saw introductions from each society highlighting their aims and events, followed by workshops. The 5 workshops offered a variety of activities from calligraphy and basics of Urdu to Malaysian traditional games and introduction to the history of Arab civilisations and the conflict in Palestine. Whilst conversing with many attendees over free tea and coffee provided, many were surprised to hear that alongside the religious lectures we hold, we also partake in other events such as local volunteering, socials and sports. From this innovative event, we have realised the potential of and need for outreach work to the student population at the university. Every Muslim student should feel at home within the Islamic society and it is our aim to make this happen. We hope to repeat this event at the beginning of next year. Mohamed Yusuf
